++ Rush Limbaugh is under attack. Your immediate action is needed. See details.

To All;

The radical left activist group, Media Matters (funded by George Soros and others) has launched an all-out smear attack against Rush Limbaugh. And the liberal media are shamelessly promoting the assault.

Their goal? To force Rush off the air. Unless our MRC Action Team takes a stand right now, they could actually succeed.

Here is what is happening:

Media Matters is claiming that Rush called any soldier that opposes the war a "phony soldier." In fact, Rush was referencing an anti-war activist who falselyand despicably passed himself off as an Army Ranger and Purple Heart winner.

Rush was calling the phony soldier a "phony soldier"!

MSNBC willfully echoed the liberal attack campaign against Rush -- despite the obvious spin and deception by Media Matters. CBS's online "Public Eye" then joined in. And now, liberals in Congress are trying to get Rush removed from Clear Channel radio.

+ + Urgent Action Items

This is nothing more than an all-out effort to silence Rush and liberals will not stop until he is removed from the airwaves.

Thank you for taking action with me.

RE: Keep Rush Limbaugh

Dear Ms. Dollinger,

Recent news has it that Clear Channel Media is contemplating taking Rush Limbaugh off the air because of a bogus accusation trumped up by the leftwing organization Media Matters. Media do matter Ms. Dollinger, and that is why it would be unconscionable and no doubt economically foolish for Clear Channel to take Mr. Limbaugh’s excellent voice and message off the air.

I can sympathize with Democrat liberals who have found it difficult to get their message out via the airwaves, which is why they’re so intent on manufacturing grievances against the likes of Don Imus, Bill O’Reilly, and now Rush Limbaugh.

But Clear Channel should not bow to their impotence. If your channel really stands for free speech, it is important that you keep the debate going and keep Rush Limbaugh broadcasting for all the world to hear.

Sincerely yours,

X X

I’ve been busy e-mailing reps and Senators that are supporting this slander of Rush. I have asked them where their outrage was when Durbin, Harry, Murtha, etc. slandered our troops.

[Shortstop7]

Low life Harry’s voicemail box is still full.

I emailed Clear Channel to voice my support for Rush.

[weegee]

Harry Reid is either playing dumb or really is dumb.

Jesee Macbeth and other PHONY SOLDIERS did not serve. They did not see combat. But they lied about such experiences.

Harry has said that Rush is insulting the men and women who serve in uniform but disagree with the war. Men like Jesse Macbeth NEVER SERVED and do not wear the uniform.

So which is it Harry, are you deliberately lying about who Rush was referring to or are you just mimicking MoveOn.PAC’s talking points?

Either way you are FAR more of a fraud and dangerous congressman tha Joseph McCarthy was.

[Lancer_N3502A]

Rush is fine. And with MacBeth getting smoked in Federal Court harry reid is going to be made to look like the Jack Ass that he is.

[bubbacluck]

I don’t think Rush is in any danger of getting taken off the air.

[shankbear]

These idiots. They simply make crap up and the Main Scream Media are willing accomplices. These people are eaten up with hate and their liberal asshole attitudes.

[taxesareforever]

Time to now fill his email box. I have contributed.

[weegee]

Don’t forget the grievances against Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh x 3 (he got canned from football, investigated at the airport for Viagra, shaken down in Florida by a partisan hack...), Bill Bennett, and Bill O’Reilly...

There is a concerted effort to take down anyone who speaks from the wrong side of the political aisle.

[chaos_5]

I watched Ried on the floor today, and I was thinking to my self .. “Am I in the twilight zone?” Every thing that worm said was a bold faced lie. This whole thing is just unreal.

[Mygirlsmom]

I don’t think Clear Channel would be so stupid as to kill their goose who lays the golden EIB eggs, but if they were, their value would tank almost immediately. Then Rush could buy up the whole company and put himself back on the air. :o)

[peteram]

Clear Channel will never let him go, for a number of reasons:

1. He is too BIG a money maker for the company. And face it - money talks louder than any whining senator or congresscritter.

2. What ever happened to “free speech?” This is all about that, right? (all PC crap aside) If a company as large as Clear Channel knuckles under, what kind of example would that set ofr other media outlets?

3. Most broadcast news oriented companies love these kinds of controversies - gets them ratings.

I’ve been in the broadcast industry a long time and my estimation is that Rush will not be let go, no matter how much the liberal crybabies lie and cry. Just won’t happen, so don’t worry. Rush did nothing wrong or illegal to warrant his dismissal.

(PS - CBS let Imus go because they are SO in bed with the libs, it’s not funny. Likewise NBC. But I think he will come back as well).

[GlennBeck08]

Harry Reid is a jack ass. Imagine the overzealous, flamingly liberal staffers any Democratic Congressman or woman has... need more be said. “It’s not the way the message is brought forth, it’s the message, maaaan!”

[processing please hold]

I just scanned an article here on FR where the hildabeast is involved with Media Matters.

[OKIEDOC]

Excellent observation.

[mojo114]

Go to senate.gov and look up old Harry and send him a good one. Don’t forget to also do Harkin, and for sure tell your Senator to support Rush. Cover the House too.

[chaos_5]

2. What ever happened to “free speech?”

"nappy headed hoes" thats what happened to it.

[OKIEDOC]

Another excellent observation.

Another excellent observation.

[Imgr8t]

LOL. I can’t help but laugh. Rush is going nowhere. People need to calm down.
